Well we can blame those in the left for not showing up or voting third party. That is certainly reasonable.

I'm pretty sure it was a shitty attempt at sarcasm, if it wasn't then yeah it's pretty gross.
Speaking of, diablos991, Bomb and others, where you guys at? I remember seeing some gaf trump supporters in the Clinton thread but they seem suspiciously absent in this one.

Trump probably believes this but then again he doesn't know how government works.
Unfortunately, if you want to win elections, you can't blame the voters even if they are deplorable. Just ask both Romney and Clinton about that.

oh america, you foolish fools
Senate has already said it won't vote before the CBO report comes out, which is going to shit all over this bill, and that they will draft a new one and vote on that anyway.

It's almost like the pause at the end is like "what have I done"
But let's be real he don't give a fuck
He's suppressing the tiny bit of humanity that lives within him and is trying to crawl out.
The 11 states with the highest level of adults with pre-existing conditions, voted for Trump.
Was killing their base part of the master plan?

I'm angry. It's too bad my district is already blue, because I want to unseat some Republicans because of this. Looks like I'll have to move...
Why not if they're gonna vote for them anyways, right?

Man the Onion articles these days are hilarious. Could you imagine if they actually did this!

If a sports team is winning at halftime, but then loses the game, do you consider that successful?
If North Korea are ever going to successfully launch a missile, right there is the perfect time and place.

At least now they've got one less reason to "limit" protests if ol Nana Ruth is already dead before she's on the highway.
Uhh I have no idea what that has to do with my point, but yes I'm well aware.

It was sarcasm.
The fact that it wasn't an onion article I was quoting should give it away but yeah.

They know this bill is evil as fuck, they just don't care.
If that team was down after the first quarter, yes it's a victory.
They have a bill moving on. It will change quite a bit in the Senate, but this was all but left for dead by Ryan a few weeks ago. Trump and his administration pushed it through.
It's not likely it will be approved by the House once it is inevitably sent back, but it still could. That's a much better place then where they were a few weeks ago.

I can't wait to see em all pop up in the next thread about dems saying how we need to appeal to the poor white working class.
Despite ya know, the dem platform already doing that and poor white working class voters literally voting for their deaths.

They'll find ways to blame it on the Dems, that's the Republican way after all.
Or, because Diablos can't enter into these threads because his opinions/positions derail every fucking thread and he doesn't feel like getting banned anymore?

Maybe they should try to stop having shitty opinions then.

CA is Medicaid expansion state *and* the abortion provisions in AHCA make its tax credits unusable in California.

This is like wondering why segregation wasn't over one week after the march on Birmingham.
Persistence was a big reason the Civil Rights and Gay Rights movements were able to shift public policy and opinion. MLK was a big part of that obviously, butit was a sustained effort by thousands of people, not just because one guy gave some great speeches.
When your position is to support the passage of legislature that will kill millions of Americans, you should suffer a fate worse than a ban from a fucking video game forum.
Let the fuckers stay out.

Amazing.
There are so many negative things about this bill that I can't keep track of them all. Is there a place that breaks it all down? I have family that is going through family planning right now and I'm wondering how this will impact them, as well as my wife and I if we decide to have children soon.
